Time opens second hotel apartment in Abu Dhabi

Time Hotels Management has opened its second hotel apartment property in Abu Dhabi, with another two more in the development pipeline for the city.

Zakher Time Residence – Abu Dhabi has 68 fully-furnished one-bedroom and studio apartments and is located in the commercial heart of the city on Fatima Bint Mubarak Street.

Its opening follows on from the launch of Time Pearl Residence, a 72 two-bedroom unit property, in the UAE capital last year.

“With the opening of the Zakher Time Residence, this brings the total number of branded hotel apartments in Abu Dhabi to 51, which, in line with the emirate’s ambitious tourism growth agenda, presents equally exciting growth opportunities for residence-style accommodation,” said Time Hotels CEO Mohamed Awadalla.

He added that the company has two more Abu Dhabi properties coming up – the 312-unit Meera Residence, also located on the Corniche, and the 264-unit Jouharaaa Residence, which is scheduled to open in early 2016.

Facilities at the new property include fully fitted kitchens with washing machines, fridge-freezers, microwaves and ovens, 24-hours security, housekeeping services, in-room safes, LED televisions and a well-proportioned gym.

“The success of our first Time Residence property reaffirms our confidence in this operational model as a key driver to capture long-term business while ensuring that we deliver our signature service and hospitality across all Time-branded properties,” said Awadalla.
